Statutory Word Lists Individual

The Y5/6 Statutory Spelling Lists are a comprehensive collection of words that students in Years 5 and 6 are expected to learn and master. The first list includes words such as 'accommodate', 'accommodation', and 'accompany', which can often be tricky due to their double consonants. It also contains words like 'aggressive', 'ancient', and 'apparent', which are essential vocabulary for students at this stage of their education. These lists are not only useful for spelling but also for expanding the students' vocabulary and understanding of word usage.

Further lists introduce a variety of challenging words that cover a range of spelling patterns and word structures. For instance, List 2 features words such as 'attached', 'awkward', and 'bargain', while List 3 includes 'community', 'competition', and 'conscious'. As students progress through the lists, they encounter words like 'desperate', 'dictionary', and 'disastrous' in List 4, and 'especially', 'exaggerate', and 'government' in List 5. These lists serve as a vital tool in enhancing students' literacy skills and preparing them for higher-level reading and writing tasks. Each list is carefully curated to ensure a balanced mix of commonly used words and those that present particular spelling challenges, such as 'hindrance', 'leisure', and 'nuisance' found in the subsequent lists.
